Just kidding, I figured. But I really like the look of the 7800+!

I am surprised how great 7800+ looks. I thought I will stick to 2600+, but 7800+ in reality looks better than in Atari graphics, so I am torn. 😂 3 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/371209-atari-7800-announced-along-with-10-new-games-and-2-new-controllers/page/27/#findComment-5542196 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hizzy Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 I just pre-ordered the 7900+. It looks like it's the 2600+ 2.0. I'm glad that it runs better than the 2600+. AND you get Bentley Bear’s Crystal Quest. This is a home run value wise. 2 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/371209-atari-7800-announced-along-with-10-new-games-and-2-new-controllers/page/27/#findComment-5542354 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope so😊 No, these 7800 games shipped to PAL regions are 50hz, need to be to keep compatibilty with original 7800 machines. However 2600 games released worldwide remain ntsc 60hz versions. If you want to swap out your PAL version for a NTSC version just drop me a DM 2 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/371209-atari-7800-announced-along-with-10-new-games-and-2-new-controllers/page/27/#findComment-5543377 Share on other sites More sharing options...
